Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I like the stems, too, the florets are not as tasty. But I definitely prefer them cooked.

Anything's better with cheese!

I like them both. I will often pare down the stem with a vegetable peeler because that outer layer is so tough.
Fun quick dinner tonight. Seared a cod fillet (my favorite fish), then sauteed some tomato, kalamata olives and capers with some shallots and garlic. Put the fillet back in the pan, then in the oven for 5 minutes on 400 degrees. Served it over couscous. Yummy, quick and filling.

Everything except Chinese food. PF Chang's is doing some quesadilla thing these days and it is so wrong.

Urk. Yeah, that does NOT sound right.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
My health-conscious former coworker swore to me that the nutrients in broccoli were actually better absorbed if you ate some fat with it, like cheese or butter.

D loves it. Probably because it's unlike anything else they have (he works there). I took one bite and I was done.

Ooh I hope that's true.

I've heard the same thing. I made sure to sprinkle some shredded cheese on the florettes during the last minute in the microwave.
You know those frozen boxes of broccoli with the longer stems? I like the stems in those. But these fresh ones were too tough. Maybe next time I'll peel them as Vortex does.
